i dont have the zippy, but have a zippy coin and a planner in the amarante. the fingerprints are annoying at first when the piece is absolutely pristine - cuz they are really noticeable - but once u start using it, u should hopefully be fine. i just wipe mine off every once in awhile. there are some people for who the fingerprints just are too much to handle, though, so if u think it's really going to bother u, go for another color. i happen to love the amarante, it's stunning!
